Hey everyone! My family and I are moving to Roseburg in the next month to be closer to family. Who are the best employers in the area? I’d like to begin the process of introducing myself in person and hopefully land a job.

Thanks in advance for your thoughtful responses!

Hello, everybody! I'm u/FallenStorm7694. Recently I was scrolling reddit looking at some local subs, and noticed Southern Oregon doesn't have a dedicated subbredit. There's the large regional subreddits r/Oregon or r/PNW, then theres a few city subreddits like r/Medford, r/KlamathFalls, r/Roseburg, r/grantspass, r/Ashland, r/CoosBay, and a few smaller ones here and there. I was inspired to do this because of the current wildfires, and I wanted to create a place where everyone in the region could share news and updates.

I'm a lifelong local to the region, and thought it would be great if we had our own thing, so I created r/SouthrnOregon this last Saturday. It's still definitely in its infancy, so any suggestions on how to improve it are more than welcome, so are any questions you have. All things Southern Oregon are allowed, including wildfire updates, regional news, nature, wildlife, arts, culture, food, entertainment, special events, local politics, history, and businesses. Basically if it's about Southern Oregon, it's allowed in r/SouthrnOregon.

If any of this interests you, please feel free to come join the subreddit, and we can build this new community together!

Any house cleaner recommendations? Reading the reviews, everyone is terrible 🤣 Any feedback from someone with first hand knowledge would be appreciated

My wife and I moved here almost a year ago and have yet to make any friends. We’re looking to get out and find more activities to do together. We both used to do Roller Derby in Coos Bay (I see there’s no team here? Unfortunate with the skating rink too!) She was asking about adult (nonreligious) choir groups but I haven’t found any. We like board games and stuff but we’re not like so social that we can handle the board games night at UVRC. I guess we do better at activities where we can manage the interaction with other people but can escape if we start to feel overstimulated. (We’re both a tad neurospicy I’m ADHD and she’s autistic so lots of people lots of noise can be a lot.) Anywho, we might just be doomed to be alone out here but lemme know if y’all got any ideas.

Alternatively for making friends separately she’s into fish keeping and video games and dogs and a bunch of other weird niche stuff and I like reading and anime and thrifting idk that kinda stuff I spose. I’m also an educator so if you can commiserate about that then that’s Gucci. :P

I was able to buy a house last year with this promotion, and it looks like they are doing it again right now. I wanted to spread the love if anyone is looking.

Anyone got a bookshelf they're trying to part with? Just got into my new apartment and I want to try an acquire a decent book shelf to start a collection. I'd love to find something someone's trying to part with / sell local before I go order something off of Amazon.

Drivers here are not good at all In general, I moved here for portland. Its not much better there either. But iv been riding the bike lane here, and im on an electric scooter, so yeah a tad faster than a bike, but no one pays attention to the lane before turning into a parking lot and I have two accidents because of this. Im just pissed. Pay attention, for real.

i wanna good spot to swim and jump off of. not no colliding rivers bs, Something high.

I need about six buckets that are 5 gallon sized. I'm from Arizona so doing something like this is pretty common and not problematic back where I'm from. Trying to make sure that's the same case here, otherwise I'll just go buy some.

would love to know if there’s any heads around town, i’ve met a couple and it’s the best.

also i wish they had more jam bands around town especially at Rosebud, a pretty decent one is coming in september, i saw them do a panic cover and it sounded good

Hi! First time posting here, apologies if this type of post isn’t allowed.

I’m in search of a large dog crate, willing to pay but limited to spending $30 max. hoping for something at least 36” in length and 20” in width.

For some backstory, my cat broke his paw and the vet recommended he be confined to a small room or a dog crate to restrict his movement as he heals. I’m a bit low on cash after paying for the urgent visit + pain meds, so looking to find a second hand option for a crate. He is currently in a small room, but it would be nice for him to be able to be in the same room as/see me as he’ll likely be restricted for the next 4-6 weeks.

Any recommendations or offers are appreciated!

Just moved to Roseburg, and I've seen ( and heard ) this loud, black, 4th Gen Camaro. Anyone got the details? Looks sick.

Also if there's anywhere besides Facebook that I can find the Cars & Coffee group, let me know. I'd like to start attending events now that I'm more local

Looking for recommendations for a spa/massage place to get a gift certificate for a friend's birthday.

Ok every disposal company out here says take them to Batteries & More, I get having to change a nominal fee to dispose them, but 59 cents a foot? I have 4 long bulbs and they want to change 2.36 a bulb? Does anyone else in town dispose these bulbs?

I’m planning on moving to Oregon. Moving somewhere close to a guitar center is apart of the criteria. Roseburg has one and is not too far from coos bay. Can you tell me all the great and terrible things about this place? From restaurants to doctors, circling around people and landing near nature… tell me what you feel is important information to help me make a decision! :) if this place isn’t all that, tell me which place is. Thanks in advance.

In 2024 he pled guilty to the murder of Kendra Hanks, was sentenced to life with parole possible in 30 years. However he was released on the second of this month?

As I’m riding the train from Eugene to Portland, I’m watching state fly past and thinking of how convenient it would be if we had train service down to Roseburg.

Everyone loves to say that it’s too slow, or then you don’ have a car at your destination, or we don’t have the infrastructure. Or my favorite ‘it will bring in more unhoused people’. Most of said people are of a particular age that continually tells us to ‘suck it up’. Well, that’s my response to those ‘concerns’. Always looking for the quick or most convenient fix….sometimes it’s hard, and maybe we need the challenge.

And yes, I realize that it takes more than just the city leadership to get on board with an idea like this, but it has to start somewhere.

Hey I’m looking to get a CNA certification, hopefully this summer or fall. Are they’re any places that train on site or maybe even an online hybrid course a few hours away? Thank you! I looked into UCC but I’d have to wait a whole year so I was wondering if anyone knew of other options or had some recommendations.

Edit: that was supposed to be UCC

I'm hopefully moving soon, and I've had a whole collection of 9/16 and 5/8s gauges from my previous sizes just sitting. If anyone wants them, DM me. I need to get rid of them and I'm sure someone could use them.

Or if anyone knows if Trader Tom's takes used jewelry, I'll go drop off my collection there. I just need to do away with things that I can't use, and I'm not about to throw away $50+ worth of jewelry.

Moved here from Portland a year ago, just seeing if anyone jams here. I just do harsh vocals, no cool instrument. Lol Im down for anything but I lean towards metalcore/hardcore/nu-metal. Deathcore is ight too. Im also 11 months sober, dont care if you are not, just keep out of practice or whatever.
